Update

An update on the progress. As we now know, 15 roof girders are in place. One is fully cladded, while three more are in the process of being cladded. It looks like preparations for the PTFE membrane to connect the girders is underway. We can expect the mebrane to start being fitted soon. Otherwise, paving stones are on site for paving to begin around the stadium. This is the first tangible move in the landscaping around the stadium to take place.

The latest girder to be lifted, the furthest right in this picture. All 3 of these girders have been lifted this past week.

Cladding beginning on the next.
